More Thunderbird School of Global Management benefits for NSHMBA members

Thunderbird School of Global Management invites you to participate in: Effective Leadership Communication: Engaging Employees, Key Stakeholders, and the Media (PMI Certified)In an increasingly challenging, global business world, leadership success hinges on effective communication that engages employees, key stakeholders and the media. Thunderbird's Effective Leadership Communication program will deepen your skills in communicating your message with clarity and focus using a practical framework. Find answers to questions like, "How can I communicate with employees to shift them from participation to commitment? What leads a 'public' to become a 'key stakeholder'? What information should I share with the media?" You will also practice delivering your message on-camera as you expand your communication skills.

More updates: We're launching two programs in May within Executive Education and I wanted to make sure your members know about them. They will be able to receive 15% off for being NSHMBA members as long as they email me and I can verify membership with you. They are:
